Why there are many people who are afraid to fail?Why some of them commit suicide because of failure?Fore me,failure is just part of our life.We should not to be afraid to fail.It is just considered a spice of life.We should always bare in mind when we fail,it is just a challenge to us.God will never give us a challenge which he thinks we can't make it.Once we fail,let's think some ways or strategies to prevent failure the next time. You will never experience success in life if you did not experience failure.I'm sure all of you experience failure.How did you handle it?Would you mind sharing it to everyone?

I've read of what one famous person once said. It's not the numerous fall that matters but the number of times he gets up after each fall. It certainly is one great tip for life. I said that many times to my kids. The first time it didn't mean so much as it is now whenever each time they remember it. I received an sms once from my second child. It said thank you papa for reminding me. Guess he just had a fall. I couldn't have agreed with you more. Absolutely yes. The greatest success in life is to stand up from failure.

you are correct,we can only experience the real flavor of success when we experienced failure in life.once we experienced it, it test our personality.it test on how strong are we in facing failures.

Yes 100% and even one feel disappointment as long as one survives after all the hurdles and keep on going from every fall and never stop standing is better than stopping permanently. Whenever I felt disappointed or feeling low i just smile and think the other way around that it would just pass by and even if it come again i am not afraid to face it and just ignore it or learn from my past experiences. Life would be so boring if their are no challenges.

That is the spirit we need to face the life at present. Life has many falls than success - don't mind about that - many people fail to achieve this .This is the real strength but it is not that easy as I am saying. I have faced many such consequences in life, but faced them boldly as I have created a strong will and determination.

true, there is no such thing as success without failure. that is why they call it a success.all the great discoverers and inventors of our time merits their success from failures. they discovered new things from the things unclear. from our failures we learn and gain experiences and thus motivates us to strive harder, to push ourselves to the brink of our abilities. in life, one could never say he has succeeded when he haven't tried failing. as they say, fall down 7 times, get up 8 times.

Yes, I do agree with you. If you never make mistakes, you can never learn. You would always be inexperienced and can never help anyone else. I too, believe it is a part of our life. A learning process so to speak. Take care.

You are definitely right.. I fully agree with you. Sometimes, there are times that we become so weak that we feel that there is no longer the will to survive. The important thing is to have faith and to trust in God. We must stand up and face the storm no matter what. It does not matter how many times we fall, but what is important is how many times we stand. I do have failures in life, but this does not hamper me from reaching my goal.

Yes. I've read from somewhere 'failure should be viewed as feedback'. We should view these failures as feedbacks so when we try again, we can learn from that previews experience so we can do things right.

I believe in the saying------Failures are the Stepping stones for Sucess .Every one would learn something new from their experiences---if you're successful then share it with others else explore yourself and try to be better next time. People who are negative minded would get depressed thinking that----They failed 100 times in a row. Where as positive minded ones---would be happy as they were successful in finding 100 different ways which puts them down. It makes a great deal to be in the latter category---great day.

Failures are the Stepping stones for Success .I also believe in this saying.when i was a kid, I'm already exposed to failure.but i never give up.i take them all as challenges or spices of life.i will not be here if i was not able to cope them up.this time,i am very much ready to face failure because i have already learned from the past.thanks for the wonderful response.happy mylotting!

As far as I am concerned, I think I can not agree with you more that the greatest success in life is standing up from failure in the life. Without the failure again and agin, I think he can not have enough experince to sart a new business,which is dreamed by many people. So with so much experience in our body, I think we can manage our life easier. With the experience from th efailure, we can get the chance to be successful.

I respect your point of view.but for me it is very important that once you failed in one particular thing,the next you encounter,it is expected for you not to fail anymore because you already have enough experience with your first failure.thank you for dropping by.happy mylotting!

We all measure success in different ways. What we want to achieve and what is actually gained measure our success or failure. Just being able to have the courage to stand up and try should be considered success. To succeed or fail is a path not chosen lightly. Giving it all your best is all we can do. Nobody can ask for more. Success is anything you can hope to achieve.

May be or may not be.... If a person loose his courage to move ahead after each failure then for him failure is failure. Frustration starts within him. He can't be success in life. From every failure and mistake in life, you don't have to worry, you have to wakes up, move ahead with more courage..you don't have to give up..if courage is there, he will move ahead in life. From each mistake, he learns, and he knows, when all mistake finish there remain success. He will get success. Everyone commit a mistake, because that is the only way to learn. Everybody falls once in a while, and it is a good training. I's like to say it another way, Scientist, do experiment. Their experiment will not success in the first step. They fails many times... may be 200,300 times, in their research..they will not let go...they think, 200 or 300 is not a failure, not a mistake, they have known,that 300 ideas are not working, that is also a discover..they fails 300 times...there is success in failure too...and in 301 experiment..they will discover.. what they wanted to discover... So failure is also a step towards a success. -vine.

as for me, i have so many failures in life., despite of this difficulties it served me as a challenged., and most of all i am confident enough because i know that God always there watching over me and guide me always., He is my refuge and strength., i always keep His promise says" I will never leave you nor forsake you" so for that instance i am not worried of all my failures.,

You have no idea how many times I have failed in life. Opportunities missed, job disqualifications, failed relationshiops, unsuccessful carreers, wrong decisions, and business failures. So many times, I have I asked myself why this is all happening to me while others enjoy all the pleasures in life? The answer came right in front of me in the form of four words: Faith, Perseverance, hardwork, and Wisdom. I never really gained all these without the failures that came along the way. For it is better to try and fail than not trying at all. After all, success is not based on the amount of material things you can buy; but how you have lived life despite the failures.

I agree with you. We need to stand everytime we fall, hence the word chances..There's always a chance for us to strive and survive. I experienced those from the time im in school or when I'm working already or trying a business. I know it's hard for us to stand when we fall specially with all the people trying to put you down more. But, if we believe that God has great plans for us and every failure is way for us to know which would be best for us, then we should get up. Everytime, I experienced failure, I always think of Einstein; He wouldn't be known as great inventor if he give up,. ^_^ Einstein thought me to strive for the best and never give up.
